It is a custom Owen Lloyd track frame with newvex lugs. Just started assembly last night. What do you think? Any bicycle fans on botl? I have several other bicycle including an Orbea Lobular road bike that does not get much use these days.

BOTL UPCOMING MAINTENANCE
Hi Everyone, as mentioned in my introduction post, BOTL needs quite a bit of updating, patching and whatever else I might come across. Over time BOTL may be unreachable on occasion as I do migrations or updates, etc. Just be patient - we'll be back! I'll generally try to keep these maintenances until later in the evenings.
Any botls that are into cycling? My latest build.

Yes, actually. I was working at a shop until about 6 months ago. I ride a fuji altamira 1.0 :eyebrow: It happens to be for sale actually. :grin:
I am a bike person. I ride a custom frame road bike made by Rob Stowe in the early 90's......and yes I have a beard and live in portland. No I don't make my own pickles or ride a fixed gear bike.:assaultri
I was just getting into it before my kids showed up... Now I am waiting for them to be old enough to leave them alone with my wife so I can get back out on the road. I just have a Fuji Roubaix from '06 with Shimano Ultegra components and some Mavic Aksium wheels... like I said, I was just starting to get into it.

Some impressive handiwork there... will that be a commuter or around town bike? Fixie?
I don't know much about road bikes, more of a mountain bike enthusiast. Although I am looking forward to the 100th Tour this year! My ride is a Pivot Mach 429. Need to get new wheels for it though... riding Salsa Gordos which are indestructible but very heavy.

I ride a bike to work when weather permits (about 8 months per year here). My bike is a 2012 Marin Bolinas Ridge 29er (about $450 new). I love the big, fat tires because the roads here are a mess. Lurch is obviously way beyond my level 
I do not ride as often as I would like. Seems that I spend more time piecing together nice builds than I ride. Will be set up as a fixed gear with a freewheel on the flip side. I an going to builds a pair of polished h plus son rims with polished phil wood hubs when I get a chance
Well I used to ride cross country and got out of that but since the gf wrecked the car and my moped is in for the winter I am riding my 80s bianchi road bike I think it's an sx sport don't really remember haha

I ride when I can. Used to bike as my main means of transportation while in college but now I just hit trails for fun. I have a Trek 6000 that is mostly stock except for parts here and there that I upgrade after things fail.

Looks good :thumbsup:. I bike when it's warm. Knobby tires though, I like to get off the paved road. Built my bike from scratch.

What streets are you taking? I used to ride from Park/Adams to SDSU 4xWeek on a roadbike... I blew a few tubes on the potholes, so I know what you are saying - The roads are not very bike-friendly.I ride a bike to work when weather permits (about 8 months per year here).

Spam reported for one of the replies to this thread.
With that said, I have been meaning to reply here myself.
I am an occasional commuter maybe 1/4 of the time, and ride a Kona Smoke.
Love the sport as well in spite of all the stuff in the news about it.
Great build. The lugs are beautiful.
